Or maybe Maharishi is "talking about" these things based on his understanding of things he's been told, and is not actually enlightened himself. I'm only mentioning it because you never seem to consider this option. I certainly do. > Maybe enlightenment isn't about "know" in the sense they > are using the word? What else could it possibly be about? "Scientific measurements?" Those are as open to interpretation as any subjective experience. > If they are enlightened, why are they worried enough > about the "f**king mess" to even bother bringing it up? You obviously are under the impression that all your worldly problems are going to stop when you realize your enlightenment. I wish you good luck with that belief. :-) :-) :-) ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Protect your PC from spy ware with award winning anti spy technology.
